DEATH OF MRS. FRANK.
Mrs. Gottfreid Frank died at her home on Cedar street in LeMars on Thursday evening at 7:30 in child birth. The funeral will be held on Sunday afternoon at 2:30 at the German M.E. church conducted by Rev. Geo. C. Rheinfrank.

Deceased’s maiden name was Caroline Kular. She was born in Hopenland, Werttemberg, Germany on December 27, 1864 and came to America in March 1884, going to Freeport, Ill. She was united in marriage with Gottfried Frank, on December 14, 1884, at Freeport. They resided there until 1886 when they came to LeMars, which has since been their home.

Nine children were born to them, seven of whom survive the mother. They are: Herman, Mary, Albert, George, Louise, Walter and Edwin.

Deceased had no relatives in the United States and she was the only child, her mother in Germany being the only surviver of the family. She was a constant member of the German Methodist Church and a good Christian woman. The blow falls heavy upon the husband and children who will greatly miss their mother’s care. One sister of Mr. Frank from Oklahoma and one from Freeport, Ill., are expected here to attend the funeral.
